Description

The Edwin C. Jellett Series of Scrapbooks, Volume 9 -The Wissahickon Page 17 contains a photograph which contains a printed caption identifying the scene as "The Wissahickon Creek in front of the Fourth Green". Most likely, the photograph was taken in front of the fourth green of what today (2013) is known as the Whitemarsh Valley County Club. The view shows the Wissahickon creek appearing as a small pond surrounded by the greens of the golf course. A clump of trees is centered in the middle of the photograph, and a tree canopy forms the distant background.
